Manchester United fans get 9950 tickets for Europa League final

Whereas Ajax's season finishes on Sunday, United still have three league games to play and Mourinho said he would have no qualms about making sure his players are in top shape for the trip to Sweden.

It comes as part of Mourinho's plans to play an entirely second-string team in that game as the Europa League final comes days later.

"We won a League Cup".

"I also want to say that I am so proud of the team of the fans and also of my self". Moreover, United were besieged with injury troubles and Mourinho made it clear that it was impossible to fight on two fronts with just 15 players. We have now lost a very important player for the final - and we don't have many. But we can win a trophy and by winning that trophy we can play Champions League next season, so that's the game.

"I think it's fair that Sergio is going to play the final and David accepts that, especially because he's already played Europa League matches and if we win the trophy, David wins the trophy". It is not possible to do it every three days.

"We did things nobody did in this club in the first season", said Mourinho.

Manchester/Lyon: Two of continent's historic football clubs, Manchester United and AFC Ajax laboured past Celta Vigo and Lyon, respectively, to set up the final of UEFA Europa League.

United midfielder Ander Herrera said: "It was a insane game and we suffered, but we're in the final".

Meanwhile, 41-year-old German Felix Brych has been given the task of officiating the Champions League final between Real Madrid and Juventus in Cardiff on June 3. They have won other, more illustrious titles, but not with Mourinho in the dugout, and he will be pleased to have the opportunity to deliver silverware.

Speaking about Bailly after the match at Old Trafford, Mourinho told BT Sport: "I didn't see the incident, but he was phenomenal". "Joel is fantastic and I am going to give him a chance to play in the Premier League this season". I always saw them supporting each other.

The Europa League now remains their only chance for Europe's elite competition, now the Red Devils remain 90 minutes away from possibly winning the Europa League for the first time after Thursday's result.
